  • Preliminary results from an investigator-initiated clinical trial showed that an AAV-OTOF gene therapy was safe and led to hearing improvements in ten patients with congenital deafness with 6–12 months of follow-up, including in a teenager and a young adult, expanding the age range from previous trials.

  • A description is given of the ENCODE effort to provide a complete catalogue of primary and processed RNAs found either in specific subcellular compartments or throughout the cell, revealing that three-quarters of the human genome can be transcribed, and providing a wealth of information on the range and levels of expression, localization, processing fates and modifications of known and previously unannotated RNAs.

  • This overview of the ENCODE project outlines the data accumulated so far, revealing that 80% of the human genome now has at least one biochemical function assigned to it; the newly identified functional elements should aid the interpretation of results of genome-wide association studies, as many correspond to sites of association with human disease.

  • The analysis of mammalian transcriptomes could provide new insights into human biology. Here the authors carry out RNA sequencing in a large collection of mouse tissues and compare these data to human transcriptome profiles, identifying a set of constrained genes that carry out basic cellular functions with remarkably constant expression levels across tissues and species.

  • Misrepair of DNA double-strand breaks can lead to chromosomal rearrangements, which can promote carcinogenesis. Here, the authors show in cultured human astrocytes that transcriptional activation impacts on DNA double-strand break formation and repair upon ionizing radiation in a site-specific manner.

  • Uniform processing and detailed annotation of human, worm and fly RNA-sequencing data reveal ancient, conserved features of the transcriptome, shared co-expression modules (many enriched in developmental genes), matched expression patterns across development and similar extent of non-canonical, non-coding transcription; furthermore, the data are used to create a single, universal model to predict gene-expression levels for all three organisms from chromatin features at the promoter.
